About Tróia

Imagine a place where the land meets the ocean, a peninsula ripping through the blue of the ocean and the green of the river. White sand beaches and wild dunes with paths that lead you to magical places in a Natural Reserve inhabited by unique species. Where you can experience the scent of the pine forest or of the fairways of the golf courses. A unique place, untouched, offering a wide range of unforgettable experiences.

Nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and the river Sado, a mere one hour from Lisbon, a place where nature has been generous, the TROIA DESIGN HOTEL is a resort where the purity of the design is present in every detail, merging perfectly with nature.

In addition to its environmental diversity, Troia is also known for its historical heritage.

The Troia Peninsula is a strip of sand on the shore of the Sado estuary with about 17 km in length by about 1.5 km wide.

During the period of Roman occupation, dating from the 1st century to the 6th century A.D, Troia was an island of the Sado delta, called Island of Ácala. The ruins of the population centre of Troia include a living area, a bathhouse, a religious centre and several industrial centres. The main activity was fishing, manufacturing and exporting fish preserves. Even today there are some traces of this rich and ancient past.
